A MOVEMENT AFOOT TO ESTABLISH A BRANCH Ol the Sucletylfor the Prevention of Cm - elty to Anlmnle In Ain.rtcu.—In.tence# Whom Dumb Anlmnle Are Subjected to tho Mod Urnlnl Troetment. There to a deep-seated movement afoot In’Ameticus that cannot be other than fruitful of golden result!.

Incidents are numberless when horses and mulos have been cruelly and even brutally treated in Americus. < Onlyjou (Friday a bookman was seen by a gentleman to strike hie horse re peated and severe blows over the face and head with the butt end of a buggy wbtp, Such indefensible cruelty tbould be punished severely and the perpetrator made an example of. A horse was seen standing bn Friday from nine o’clock until six exposed to the asperities of tbe bitter cold day, 'Without shelter or tbe semblance of pro* tectlon against tbe driving rain. The animal was an animated skeleton, to say thejleast, and it was worse than cruelty to expose him to tbe most propi tious conditions of tbe weather. There is nothing so reprehensible as this subjection of defenceless animals to cruel treatment Tbe movement to establish this branch of tbe S. P. C. A. (should be accorded the warmest and most enthusiastic sup port.
